Within each soul imprint divine, Baptismal dignity,

Radiating splendent light - the Life of Holy Trinity

Life must ascend from waters of purgation

To virtuosity of sounds of sky-high illumination

The interior, high-priced bond with Glorified Unifier

Transformation glorious in blazing Fire

The one who, as promised, reigns -

Professedly day after day holds firmly sway -

Is no other than the untiring servant of others

Safeguarding out-of-this-world mental poise

By triumph of values rocklike, unshakable,

Captivated by loveliness of holiness -

Charity's life-giving drive and liveliness

Neither can bear inner nor outer rebellion -

The hardnosed, heartless, secular hellion

Infectious and towering is courage

Erected on rock of humility,

Virtuous valor - the martyrs' blood -

The seed of fruit-bearing Christians

Saints - most trusted, endearing

And winning defenders, for their

Luminary and fire is the Glorified Unifier

Conscience has rights only

Because of Sacred Duties

Self-sacrificing deeds foster

Harvest abundant for all

The awe-inspiring moral heroism,

Awakening reflection, ardent affection

Battling mushrooming of evil - the harsh darts

From the tempter's dark arts.

Belief is unutterable regeneration

Still, religion is not merely consolation

A solitary exaltation, sealed off from

Bread of affliction or thorn negation

Evasion of duty, self-exemption

Or hasty self-justification

Faith remains crying for battle, a piercing Sword

For grandeur of Truth and Love enduring

No bookish pedantry, no oversimplified religion

Faith is a Sword - Undying Word - Triumphant Sword

Severing, exterminating maleficent mass discord
